Description
One of my many pet peeves is when people get the White Rabbit and the March Hare mixed up. Like, I'll be looking for March Hare pictures and I'll see a picture of the White Rabbit, click on it, and see that the person that posted called the White Rabbit the March Hare. Granted, this doesn't happen too often, but it really peeves me when it does.Now, the only reason why people probably get them mixed up is because they are both part of the leporidae family (meaning they're both bunnies). But I find that because they are of related species, the character designers always try to make the two characters look as different from each other as possible so that the audience doesn't mix them up.
Here are some points I've observed:
- They always make the March Hare taller.
- Most of the time, they make the March Hare's ears longer.
- Most of the time, they make their outfits look different.
- They make their faces look different.
- Sometimes they give the March Hare yellow hair or straw on his head.
- In Disney's case, they made the March Hare thin and the White Rabbit fat.
- The White Rabbit is always the one that's colored white.
Despite all of the designer's efforts, people still manage to get the two characters mixed up.

Yeah.
But it's because they're both bunnies that the character designers try to make them look different!

Nehe, in one they're both white. But that's probably the least known one.

Though I guess you could think he's white...
I dunno, though, people are weird.
Or maybe just stupid.
